Jaffa Club for kids

The Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund (RWAF) has long been aware that children are generally the driving force behind the purchase of pet rabbits owned by families. Although well-intentioned, parents are often ill-advised on the basic requirements of rabbits, and tens of thousands of them end up abandoned in rescue centres every year. Worse; as revealed in an RSPCA survey in 2006, 40% of them die through neglect. The RWAF hopes to address this sad state of affairs by launching ‘The Jaffa Club’ in 2008, which will be targeted at school children and will aim to educate them on every aspect of rabbit welfare.
